ESPN play-by-play announcer Mark Jones will refuse the standard police protection for his Saturday college football game, he said on Twitter.

The tweet came in the early hours of Thursday after the officers who shot Breonna Taylor were not charged in her death. Jones is working the game between Army and No. 16 Cincinnati at Nippert Stadium in Ohio.

What a preening idiot.

[C19fan]

When someone tries to break into I am sure your nice residence do not bother calling the police.

[Vendome]

Whatever...

Why does he need protection anyway?

[Eddie01]

I’ll be at the range.

[FatherofFive]

Sounds almost like an invitation....

In this country you should hurt someone who has a differing opinion. Or does he live in a different country.

In short, this clown is not worth the effort to harm. He is saving ESPN money.

[Vermont Lt]

You should NOT.....sorry, I missed the NOT in that post.

[C19fan]

If this person feels so unsafe in the United States he is more than welcome to move back to his native Canada.

Wonder how many private armed bodyguards are employed by ESPN and the other MSM propagandists. There is a booming market for armed private security and bodyguards. The liberal billionaires are on a hiring frenzy.

Works either way. Reads like sarcasm without the NOT.

I wouldn’t know Mark Jones from the last guy who shined my shoes at an airport.

U of Cincy is not in a very good neighborhood.

I enjoy watching Army football but I won’t be watching this weekend with this virtue-signaling dweeb at the mic.

Any officer assigned to a detail for Jones will simply ignore his protestations. They are assigned by their commander and the subject has no more power to have them "take the day off" than the janitor who scrubs the toilets at the precinct house.

Jones needs to STFU and do his job.

[ksm1]

No one cares.

[EC Washington]

Another reason not to watch ESPN

[EEGator]

Bryant Gumbel ass n****.

[T.B. Yoits]

Why just game day? This hypocrite needs to publicly state that he'll refuse all police protection every day of the year.

ESPN needs to follow suit and refuse police protection for all their staff and facilities for every day of the year.

They have all the answers; let them pay for private security out of their own pocket.
